Black Creek Wild & Scenic River 8K
Twenty-one miles of dark, slow water and deep woods, and nothing else like it in the Deep South. We made this with the Forest Service to get folks into the conversation about Mississippi's only Wild and Scenic River. Quiet, strange, and worth protecting.
Welcome to Black Creek, 21 miles of protected river surrounded by a swath of wilderness in southern Mississippi’s coastal plain. This long stretch of dark, slow water, with access trails through the forest and canoe launches, provides the chance to go deep and escape the hustle of everyday life.
Nothing else like it exists in the deep South.
Black Creek, Mississippi’s only Wild and Scenic River, is updating its management plan. Find out how you can join the conversation around its future. This film was brought to you by the United States Forest Service with support from NRS and American Rivers.
